SNMP Management
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is available only on model EP3003
CheetahPrint Power-3003.
The EP3003 CheetahPrint Power-3003’s SNMP support allows network supervisors
to monitor and control the Print Server using network management platforms such as
HP OpenView, IBM SystemView, etc. This is accomplished through the SNMP
agent and the SNMP MIB.
The agent (device software) responds to standard SNMP commands and reports
device configuration and conditions. When a change in condition occurs, the SNMP
agent will send a message (a Trap) to the associated management station.
The EP3003 CheetahPrint Power-3003’s SNMP MIB is a collection of objects that
are monitored and controlled using SNMP’s get and set commands. The MIB files
are in the Mib folder on the CD-ROM. The appropriate .MIB file must be imported
into your SNMP management program:
•
Mib1p.mib
Single port models
•
Mib2p1s.mib
Two parallel ports, 1 serial port model
•
Mib3p.mib
Three parallel port model
Preparing the Print Server for SNMP
Before attempting to manage the Print Server using a SNMP Management station,
the following settings should be assigned to it, in addition to the IP Addresses
covered in
IP Address Configuration on page 25. These settings can be made using
FTP, BiAdmin, or WebAdmin.
The number and token in brackets shows the line number in the Print Server
CONFIG file.
